[QUOTE="kris, post: 22533, member: 74"] <span style="color: #333399">okay, i don't think a five day suspension counts as five suspensions. it's one. it would have to be five separate suspensions to meed the required 10 for change of placement hearing. they are yanking your chain. i strongly suggest that you pay a visit to the Special Education 101 forum & start getting guidance from sheila & martie. those gals know their stuff. suspending a kid in kindergarten seems way extreme to me. there should be interventions in his EIP to avoid this. whether or not you like the teacher is immaterial in my opinion. what's important is what is the most appropriate placement for your little guy. it's also immaterial whether or not the aide & the teacher get along. they are professionals & adults. it is incumbent on them to figure out how to rub along so they can work in [b]difficult child'S BEST INTEREST![/b] that, my dear, is there bloody J*O*B. your son should not be paying the cost of their inability to behave professionally. do not rely on the school to do the psychiatric part of any evaluation. get that done privately. it seems a neuropsychologist evaluation is in order & you can get his current psychiatrist or pediatrician to make the appropriate referral. the school will do a psychiatric evaluation, but they have an agenda....they only look at what affects his ability to be educated. an independent evaluation will have a much more global view of his problems. by the way, have you seen increased aggression since he started the focalin??? kris </span> [/QUOTE]
